With his growing family, injury and his age all playing a part in his football future, Connor believes he will hang up the boots at the end of the season. “The connection between mates and having a few beers after a win,” are just some of the things that Connor has loved about his time at Sunshine. Throughout his career, Connor has received awards for the Most Consistent Player and has also won a premiership.

WWW.WRFL.ORG.AU 4 PROPOSAL TO CHANGE JUNIOR AGE LEVELS By Kirstie Fitzgerald
The Western Region Football League is staff indicated an overall satisfaction with the considering changing its junior age level change, particularly with respect to the new Under competition structure to include Under 17 and 19 grade that was seen to assimilate much better Under 19 grades in season 2016. into the senior club environment,” Tregear said. The new proposal would see the retention of the “While EFL staff noted that it would be junior Under 9 to Under 15 competitions, while the unreasonable to expect a marked increase in Under traditional Under 16 and Under 18 grades would 19 team numbers in the first year or two after such make way for the new Under 17s division to be a change, they did report a rise in the number of played on Sunday and Under 19s on Saturday. under-age teams in the two and a half seasons since The move comes after the WRFL Board and making the change.” Juniors Board recognised a reduction in the Further data collection, analysis of historical number of clubs fielding Under 18 teams over the records and detailed survey of club opinions are past several years, as well as the view that some being reviewed to further inform discussion over Under 16 players who leave football, would be the next six weeks, with a resolution to be sought retained if offered another year of Sunday junior by the WRFL Board later next month. competition. Consideration was also given to the difficulty of integrating Under 18 players into the senior club environment, with most players legally unable to participate in key club functions. Initially releasing its intentions to change the age-level to all WRFL clubs in July, league chief executive Bob Tregear said that the feedback has been positive. “Since distributing the proposal to all member clubs last month, we have had some really pleasing feedback. “This decision will affect not only those clubs with current junior teams, but will also have an impact on those clubs looking to develop junior sides in the future, so to receive a positive response in its early stages is promising.” Eligibility for respective age levels will remain as currently defined in the league’s by-law 4.1.2.1, with players to be under the nominated age-level on 31 December of the year prior to the start of the season. To cater for the introduction of the new grades in the 2016 season, the effect would see the move of existing 2015 teams up by one year. “Depending on feedback received, it is likely that some provision would be made for over-age development players at the Under 19 level, as currently provided in by-law 4.1.2.2,” Tregear said. With successful introduction of an age-level change in the Eastern Football League in 2012, the WRFL is hoping to receive similar results in 2016 if the proposal is successful.

This week the Warriors take on Werribee Districts to continue their short but fierce rivalry. They have shared the spoils in their two meetings this year, but the last encounter was a one sided win to Hoppers Crossing. The big ground at Avalon Airport Oval will suit the Warriors, who I think will win this game. Districts need all their guns to fire in particular their forward line. Andrew Panayi is the key. He is hard to match up on and can be explosive, but the midfield needs to hurt Hoppers on the scoreboard as well. The other game sees competition powerhouse Spotswood in unfamiliar territory, a week one elimination final. The Woodsmen have played some great footy this year and some ordinary footy as well. On their day they are capable of beating any side except Deer Park, but that is another story. While Sunshine’s finals hopes were gone, the Roos made sure Altona is in the same boat, their best is very good and they didn’t go down without a fight, wrapping up Altona by 24-points.

The chance for sides heading P W L D % PTS into the finals to grab the upper-hand or inject WYNDHAMVALE 18 16 2 0 200.46 64 themselves with some confidence, gave this round WEST FOOTSCRAY 18 15 3 0 196.81 60 intangible value. NORTH FOOTSCRAY 18 11 7 0 141.98 44 One such game was Yarraville Seddon’s clash with YARRAVILLE SEDDON EAGLES 18 10 8 0 142.84 40 West Footscray. Despite being distinct underdogs, CAROLINE SPRINGS 18 9 9 0 103.16 36 a good performance from the Eagles was an opportunity to put forward their flag credentials GLEN ORDEN 18 6 12 0 72.73 24 and ensure the premiership was not just within the MANOR LAKES 18 5 13 0 64.81 20 grasp of the top two sides on the ladder. SUNSHINE HEIGHTS 18 0 18 0 28.42 0 Despite succumbing to an eventual 31-point loss, the spirit and work-rate on display meant that the This week’s two semi finals are enticing affairs. Eagles will be no pushovers across potentially the next three weeks. Although the scoreboard was The winner of Wyndhamvale and West Footscray close all day, the Eagles were never able to get will stamp their claim as premiership favourites within more than an arms length of the Roosters. while for North Footscray and Yarraville Seddon, it is do or die. Trailing by five goals at three quarter time, Eagles’ coach Dean Callaway urged his charges to “back By Justin Lemmon Follow me on Twitter @JustinLemmon1 yourselves to win the game,” and “make them [West Footscray] panic.” The opportunistic Gordon Hillsdon and tough ball-winners Jake Rycroft and Jack Collins ensured West Footscray were never comfortable, but ultimately the margin couldn’t be travailed. In the hard fought, high pressure affair it was the superior foot skills and poise of West Footscray midfielders Jamie Zerafa, Steve McAnulty and Hayden Bray that proved the difference. Up front it was the imposing Rhys Kirk who did most of the damage with six goals, giving another string to the Rooster’s abundant forward line. The hit out was an ideal final scrap for both sides to finely tune for finals, both were in good form and can be encouraged by the standard of football on display. Around the grounds, North Footscray’s inaccuracy meant they were never able to trouble Wyndhamvale who secured the minor premiership with a 35-point win. Caroline Springs thumped Sunshine Heights who end a disastrous 2015 without a victory, while Glen Orden managed to climb above Manor Lakes on the ladder as they defeated the Storm by 40-points.

The Cousins did his club best and fairest chances no Magpies won in fine fashion last time they met, harm as Tyrone Charles was again named best but both sides will play their strongest hands on afield. neutral territory in a clash that means absolutely everything. Lightning struck twice for North Sunshine as they proved themselves once again with a 17-point By: Andrew Mead victory over the Wyndham Suns to finish the Follow me on Twitter @AndyJMead season with a fifth consecutive home victory. A close contest once more, the home side led at every change to finish the season with six wins for the year. Despite finishing in sixth position, coach Joe Larizza will undoubtedly be proud of his chargers who provided their supporters with its best season in several years. For the Wyndham Suns, it is on to an elimination final with Sanctuary Lakes. Tarneit’s season provided plenty of excitement and improvement which returned five wins and a draw for seventh place. Unfortunately, their season finished on a sour note as Albanvale put kicking woes behind them and record an accurate 121-point victory. John Sirianni booted 12 majors if you don’t mind; as spearhead Jason Karim led a flurry of multiple goal kickers for the Cobras. The finals series kicks off with an explosive elimination final between Sanctuary Lakes and the Wyndham Suns. The Sharks finished third in the home and away season after a fantastic six goal win over Parkside. Confidence and form has peaked at the perfect moment for coach Nick Wadell’s squad who defeated the Suns a fortnight ago. However, expect an exhilarating contest this weekend with no second chances on offer for the defeated. Paul Cutajar-Milosev’s four goals haul helped Braybrook break a six game losing streak to get a win over Laverton last weekend. Photo: A place on the grand stage awaits for the winner Darrell Jones.
